How to monitor background tasks

StoreLinkr is powered by a robust automation engine that runs background tasks to keep your data synchronized. You can monitor these workflows to ensure everything is running smoothly.

Workflow Overview

Navigate to Settings > Tasks to see a visual breakdown of your automation pipelines. Tasks are grouped by their primary function:

• Import Products: Fetching data from your suppliers or source systems.
• Import Orders: Bringing new sales into StoreLinkr.
• Import Stock: Updating inventory levels from your warehouses.
• Export Products: Pushing your catalog to online stores and marketplaces.
• Export Orders: Sending fulfillment data back to your sales channels or suppliers.

Monitoring Status

Each task in the workflow shows:

• Last Run: When the task most recently finished.
• Status: Indicates if the last run was successful or if it encountered errors.
• Frequency: How often the task is scheduled to run.

Troubleshooting

If a task shows a "Failed" status or isn't running as expected:

1. Check the Logs for detailed error messages from the connected APIs.
2. Ensure your API Keys or integration credentials are still valid.
3. Verify that your Subscription limits (like the product export limit) haven't been reached.

tip

You can often trigger an immediate run of a specific task by using the Sync Now buttons found on the relevant feature pages (e.g., in the Products or Orders overview).
